I have prayed for world peace, and an end to suffering, disease and hunger.
Obviously I didn't believe I was actually talking to anyone, but I thought I'd give it a try, for whoever might be listening.
No, that didn't work. God's plan does not include things like that, nor is he willing to adjust it to include those things.
I accept the world for what it is, maddening and saddening thought it is. To try and suggest there is a purpose to all the horrific random suffering in the world is just a deluded way of dealing with it, I suppose. Or worse, that those people and animals actually deserve it.
